The beautiful bronze Cavalier King Charles Spaniel Waving Paw sculpture is a casting of an original sculpture.

Edition
The inspiration behind the sculpture
This Cavalier, Waving Paw sculpture was commissioned of Minnie. Minnie was a sweet-natured older dog who was commissioned along with her partner Max (also a Cavalier). I’d just finished my life-sized Cavaliers Nora and Martha and it was a nice change to be able to apply my research into the breed to two smaller sculptures as well. Personally, I love the sweetness of the waving paw pose. And it seems to have a few fans among my clients too, which is always lovely!
How it was made
When I model animals I try where possible to find examples from life. I also use many photos – often hundreds – showing the animal (and other animals of the breed or species). This helps me sculpt their anatomical features. I study the way that hair, fur or skin lies over their muscles or alters their shape, and their different poses and attitudes.
The Cavalier King Charles Spaniel Waving Paw sculpture was modelled in wax, over a steel and aluminium armature for support. After theCavalier King Charles Spaniel Waving Paw statue was finished a rubber mould was taken, with ‘keys’ placed in the rubber to ensure proper positioning. Then a shell of fibreglass was applied, to protect the mould and support it during the casting process.
